Engineered for the Mediterranean Climate: The COREtec Layer Anatomy
The high humidity of Cyprus, the coastal salt air, and scorching summer temperatures cause irreversible deformation in standard flooring. Engineered by USA-based Shaw Industries, COREtec is designed with 4 specialized layers to meet the harsh climate conditions of the island and the standards of luxury residential or commercial projects.
Here is the unique structure that makes COREtec the best and most durable flooring investment for projects in Cyprus:
- Premium Protective Wear Layer (20 mil Wear Layer): Engineered for heavy commercial traffic, this transparent armor provides maximum resistance against the island's sandy and active lifestyle. While offering flawless protection against stains and scratches, it preserves the floor's refined, day-one appearance for years and ensures effortless maintenance.
- Textural Richness and Design Layer (Luxury Top Layer): This aesthetic layer features deep texture embossing, completely rejecting the artificial look of ordinary flooring. Combined with Micro Bevel edge details, it brings the genuine feel and depth of real wood into spaces. Its resilient structure creates a solid, comfortable underfoot feel.
- Unique WPC Core (COREtec® WPC Core): The patented backbone of COREtec. It is 100% waterproof against high humidity and sudden temperature fluctuations—the biggest challenges in Cyprus. Unlike traditional laminate flooring, it never expands, contracts, swells, or warps. It ensures the floor remains dimensionally stable down to the millimeter, even under the toughest conditions.
- Integrated Natural Cork Underlayment (Attached Cork Underlayment): The most refined detail that makes COREtec unparalleled on the island. Eliminating the need for an extra underlayment, this integrated natural cork absorbs all micron-level imperfections in the subfloor. Most importantly, it delivers superior acoustic comfort by dampening footsteps in both traditional Cyprus stone architecture and modern residences. Furthermore, the natural structure of cork acts as a biological barrier against mold and moisture growth.
From kitchens to luxury coastal villas, and boutique hotels to prestigious commercial projects, COREtec delivers a timeless, quiet, and uncompromising luxury experience in Cyprus.
